A Cannon Fodder A Has No Intention of Moving Up - Chapter 13
An Muxue was kissing her intensely, but when she opened her eyes and saw her mother, she hurriedly pushed Lin Yue away.
Lin Yue, who had been dazed from start to finish, turned around only then to see Ming Yulan.
Ming Yulan: “You two are…”
“Treatment.”
The two of them spoke almost in unison.
“Ahem.” An Muxue’s face flushed as she smoothed her hair at her temples. She said seriously: “After speaking with Dr. Wu, I found that my condition has improved and there is a high possibility of a cure. So, I’ve agreed to see her every day from now on for active treatment.”
Aside from her ears being a bit red, An Muxue’s expression was very professional.
Ming Yulan was surprised—since when did her daughter become proactive enough to start right in the hallway? But since she was willing to accept treatment, it was a good thing.
“That’s wonderful,” she said, offering her support.
The mother and daughter chatted for a while. Lin Yue actually had classes in the afternoon; once she was sure An Muxue was okay, she wanted to leave.
“Then… I’ll head back to school first.”
An Muxue raised an eyebrow and grabbed her. The moment she caught her, she didn’t actually have a plan for what to say. Seeing Lin Yue turn back to look at her, An Muxue herself was a bit surprised at how fast her hand had moved.
“Have… uh, have you had lunch yet?”
Lin Yue’s stomach growled right on cue. She hurriedly covered it, her face turning red.
An Muxue’s expression softened. “Let’s eat together, then I’ll send a car to take you back to school.”
Lin Yue couldn’t easily refuse and followed An Muxue and her mother to a nearby restaurant. An Muxue handed the ordering tablet directly to Lin Yue.
“Order whatever you want. Eat more.”
Lin Yue held the tablet in surprise. When she looked up, she looked like a little hamster, her eyes sparkling slightly. “Thank you. You’re so kind…”
An Muxue felt her face heat up instead. What’s so special about that? How is she so easily satisfied?
“Ahem, I’m technically your boss now, so of course I’ll look after you.”
“Mhm, I will definitely cure you.”
Lin Yue replied with such genuine seriousness that An Muxue felt a bit awkward again.
“Let’s set some ground rules. The only treatments I accept are kissing, sleeping together at night, and physical contact to the extent of hugging. Marking and anything… further, don’t even think about it.”
“I know.”
In truth, even if An Muxue asked her to do more, she wouldn’t dare. After all, a year from now, An Muxue was supposed to be with Shu Yan.
Ming Yulan looked up. A moment ago, these two children had their heads together in intimate conversation, but now the atmosphere had suddenly turned cold. However, once the food arrived, they seemed to make up again. She raised an eyebrow, watching An Muxue’s rapidly shifting expressions. She really couldn’t grasp her daughter’s thoughts anymore.
What Ming Yulan didn’t know was that after returning home, An Muxue went to the kitchen specifically to instruct the chef to prepare an extra midnight snack for Lin Yue from now on.
How can there be such an idiot who whispers ‘this is so delicious’ with every single dish she tastes? An Muxue recalled the scene, still finding it unbelievable.
Since the An family villa was closer to school, Lin Yue resumed her previous schedule of going to the old estate every day while An Muxue was resting between projects. She stayed there all day on weekends too.
Final exams were approaching. Because her scholarship required high grades, she never slacked off on her studies. Releasing pheromones while following An Muxue around all the time would be a waste of time and inconvenient. So, for most of her time at the villa, Lin Yue studied quietly by herself.
However, to ensure the “dosage” of treatment was sufficient, she set an alarm. halfway through her reading, the alarm went off. Lin Yue immediately stood up and searched the villa for An Muxue.
She found An Muxue in the basement home theater watching a movie with her younger sister. Even dressed in loose loungewear and sitting casually, the flickering light of the screen on An Muxue’s stunning profile made her look like a scene from a movie herself.
Fearing she would disturb them, Lin Yue stood by An Muxue’s side, waiting expectantly.
An Muxue glanced at her. Her high-and-mighty goddess aura vanished, replaced by the specific person Lin Yue was familiar with. She patted the seat next to her, signaling her to sit. Then, she closed her eyes and waited for Lin Yue to kiss her.
An Qi, sitting nearby: “…”
After they kissed for a while, An Muxue whispered breathlessly, “Is that enough?”
Lin Yue nodded with a blush, and An Muxue let her go. An hour later, Lin Yue would come back and sit obediently by her side. An Muxue would naturally lean her face in.
An Qi: “…”
The movie was impossible to watch. Not only were they kissing, but they also leaned their heads together to whisper.
“The movie is almost over. What do you want for dinner?” “I like everything,” Lin Yue thought for a moment. “I like home-cooked dishes.” “Okay, I got it.”
Lin Yue soon left. When An Muxue turned back, she noticed her sister’s strange expression.
“What’s wrong?” An Qi grimaced. “Seriously, why do I feel like I’m constantly being fed ‘dog food’ (PDA)?” An Muxue pulled a stern face. “Nonsense. I’m receiving treatment.”
But your attitude wasn’t like this with the Alphas who tried to treat you before! “Sister, do you… maybe like her a little?” “Impossible,” An Muxue replied instantly. “If anyone likes anyone, it’s her liking me.”
Didn’t she see Lin Yue coming to find her for kisses every little while? And when they kissed, she would hook her tongue and use her breathing to “seduce” her. She was like this every day, clingy to death.
An Qi scratched her head. “Wait, it’s not right if she likes you either!” An Muxue lowered her gaze. “She hasn’t said she likes me. As I said, we have a purely medical relationship.” An Qi: “…” Really?
The movie ended, and An Muxue got up to tell the chef what Lin Yue liked to eat. An Qi, however, was still a bit unconvinced. She suddenly wanted to see what would happen if someone else tried to get between them. She glanced at her phone and had a mischievous idea.
“Second Sister!” An Qi leaned in next to An Muxue again. “Let’s go to a hot spring in a few days.” “Hot spring?” “Yeah, aren’t you on break?” An Qi was very enthusiastic. “Invite that ‘little nerd’ too.” An Muxue sighed. “She’s twenty, she’s older than you.” “Uh, she looks younger than me, though.”
An Muxue ignored her. If she were any younger, she’d be a minor. “Are we going or not, Sister?” An Muxue: “Lin Yue has classes.” “It’s fine, we’ll take the private jet. It’s fast—two days over the weekend is plenty!” An Muxue thought about it. “Okay.”
Every time she gave Lin Yue something good to eat, the girl’s eyes lit up. If she took her on a trip, she would probably be very happy. An Muxue didn’t even realize she had fallen into the mindset of someone raising a puppy.
“Great! I’ll invite a few more people then.” “Who are you inviting?” An Qi paused. “Just Xiao Zhi, Nan Qiao, and the others.”
An Muxue hesitated. The people An Qi mentioned were cousins around their age, but they hung out with An Qi more. Xiao Zhi was the type who played around quite a bit; she swapped Alphas very frequently. An Muxue’s only impression of her was that she liked to tease Alphas and had a very large chest… because the last time she saw her shopping, she was basically wearing a swimsuit.
Should I let Lin Yue meet her? An Muxue’s brow furrowed, but she felt her revulsion was irrational. Why should she care? Ultimately, she just nodded. “Oh.”
As expected, dinner that night earned a sincere “so delicious” triple-threat from Lin Yue. Ming Yulan and the chef loved her enthusiasm and couldn’t stop smiling.
After dinner, Lin Yue brushed her teeth and took a shower. Because the time she had set for the next treatment had passed, she hurried to find An Muxue.
An Muxue was in her bedroom. She looked up to see Lin Yue in shorts, her hair still wet, jogging over to kiss her. Her face flushed, and she muttered: “I really can’t deal with you…”
“Mhm?” Lin Yue pecked the corner of her mouth, not hearing her clearly.
Having just showered, Lin Yue carried a faint mist of water, making her fair skin look exceptionally clean and translucent. Her loose hair felt different than usual, and because it wasn’t dried, it made her white T-shirt a bit see-through. A pleasant scent of sandalwood mixed with body wash wafted over. An Muxue’s heart raced, and she pushed her away.
Honestly, even with the ground rules set, Lin Yue has so many little schemes to seduce me.
“Go change into pajamas.” Lin Yue stood still, looking lost. She didn’t actually own pajamas; she always slept in old T-shirts. “It’s clean, though.” An Muxue glared at her. “I’ll give you a set.”
An Muxue walked into her walk-in closet, which was larger than a normal person’s bedroom. Blushing, she bypassed the entire row of thin nightgowns and specifically chose the most conservative-looking set of pajamas to shove at Lin Yue. “Change quickly.”
Lin Yue had no choice. Seeing An Muxue start to walk out, she simply lifted the hem of her T-shirt right there in the closet. An Muxue caught a glimpse of her waist, hurriedly averted her gaze, and left.
See? Full of schemes. I won’t look.
“By the way, I might go to a hot spring with An Qi next week. If you think it will interfere with your classes, you don’t have to go.”
Lin Yue thought for a moment, then said firmly, “If you’re going, I’m going.”
The corners of An Muxue’s mouth quirked up slightly. As expected. Lin Yue only wants to be with me.
